Hi,
That doesn't make sense to me at all. If my goal is to host 250
VServers, then I'm in big trouble if the smallest install is
270MB. That would be 50GB and that doesn't include the user
files!
I was thinking that a basic install could be 20 MB. Is that
possible? I'll start building basic installs and see how small I
can get it, but there must be somebody out there who already has
this down pat and knows what is the smallest practical size
install for Vservers with typical functionality (based on RH
7.2).
